One Cent 1968 (mint sets only), Coin from New Zealand - detailed information
| ||||||||||||
The New Zealand one-cent coin was the smallest denomination coin of the New Zealand dollar from the currency's introduction in 1967 to its demonetisation, along with the two-cent coin, in 1990. With a diameter of 17.53 millimetres, it is the smallest coin ever issued of the dollar, and at 2.07 grams in mass the lightest as well. Coins issued in 1968 were in mint sets only (not intended for circulation); any that were released would have circulated for 22 years before they were demonetised on 1 May 1990. | ||||||||||||
